Alaska MastOdOns.

II Is known that enormous hairy elephants or
mastodons once lived In Siberia and Alaska
Not only are their remains abundant, but the
carcases Of the animals preserved In prehis.
toric icebergs have been recovered and 1t Is
from these models that naturalists have res
produced the interesting fabrcations such as
that exhibited here at the late Worlds EXPOSE
ton. In the period when those animals lived
there the climate was doubtless much warmer
than at present, as then the Mississippi valley
was in all probability a vast estuary extending
to the Arctic ocean, and through It the Gulf
stream, which now flows out through the
straits OF Florida, then found its heated
waters mitigating the polar climate as II now
does that Of England When the continent
was lifted above the water the sources OF heat
were withdrawn, and the nothern regions
were locked In ice, a catastrophe which the
hairy elephants could not survive.
In the face OF this supposltitious science,
some miners who have been prospecting In
Alaska have returned to San Francisco and
report that the Stickene river Indians declare
that the mastodon still lives there and had
been seen by them. One OF the Indians said
that while hunting one day In that unknown
section he came across an immense track sunk
to a depth OF several inches In moss. 1t much
rcsembled an elephants track, but was larger
around than barrel The Indian followed
up this curious track which to all appearances
was very fresh, tracking from one immense
stride to another a distance OF some miles,
when he came in full view of his game.\ The
hunter gave one look, then turned Nand
fled. These Indians as rule are the
bravest hunters. With no other weapon than
their spear they viii attack and kin grizzly,
but the immense proportions OF this new style
of game both startled and filled the hunter,
brave as he was with great fear lie descrlb.
ed 1t as looking larger than Post Trader Har-
per's store with great shining, yellowish
tusks and n mouth large enough to swallow
him in a single gulp. He said the animal was
doubtless similar to those which furnished
the immense bones scattered over that section.
Since the Introduction Of American whisky
into Alaska the poor savages will soon be
placed In condition TO see all sorts OF mon
sters. One thing is certain-there are no
snakes there -Neie Orleans Picay,ne

Beatrice and Her Mother.

There is no foundation whatever, says The
London World, for report which has appear
ed In several papers that separate establish
lishment is to be provided for Princess Beatrice
and Prince Henry Of Battenberg early next
year. They will continue to reside with her
majesty, and there has never been any idea Of
her leaving the court. The queen can not
bear to be separated from Princess Beatrice,
and would not even allow her TO pass month
at Buckingham palace last season. The
princess thoroughly understands ell thu
queens whms and wishes, and she is now
well versed in all the perplcxing court
techncalties of which her majesty is so
tenacious. Princess Beatrice has far more
influence than any Of her brothers or sisters,
except the prince OF Wales, when he deems II
necessary to exert himself, and she is allowed
TO have very much her own wav In all domestic
matters. The story that Princess Alex Of
Hesse was to replace her aunt as companion
TO the queen was nousensical. She is only 10,
and is quite stranger to the English court
and TO English society.

A Gallant Director.

One of the directors of the fair at Susanville
proved to be first class gallant, one day last
week. The wind was blowing furiousy, and
almost cut like a knife. There were many
ladies in the grand stand to see the races, but
they would have hurried homeward had not
the director skirmished around and gathered
up lot of overcoats and blankets for them TO
wrap up In. II was rather a novel sight to
see the females bundled up so, but they re-
NAMED TIL the last race was finished, and then
they loaded down the director with thanks
Snsanvllle Is high up In the hills, where the
winter frosts and snow appear early, which ac-
counts for the cold snap during the fair.
Down here In the valley during that time, we
were still splurging in our summer suits and
trying to keep cool with Ices, principally con-
sistng of iced drinks, In the shape of julcps
and lemonades -Sdcremeito Bee.

Fawcett's Monument.

The monument erected to the late Prof.
Fawcett in Westminster Abbey is very besut-
full. 1t has been placed against the south wall
Of the baptistry. and is in tablet form, with
figures in high relief, surmounted by the por-
trait head in green bronze, set medallion wise,
upon gold ground. Hslow the portrait there
Is a row Of seven small figures In bronze, plat
ed over with gold aud silver; each figure Is
meant TO represent some Characteristic OF Mr..
Fawcett- The central figure is Fortitude,
shown as an armed warrior carrying a stand
ard. On the left are sympathy, Industry and
BROTHERHOOD; on the right Justice, Zeal, and
Brotherhood again.-London World.

ubiquitous and enterprlslng Germans. All
these estates are worked by Tartar labor; so
long as the proprietor was there or a descend
ant Of one Of the old Tartar chieftaln families
things went smoothly. A German agricultur-
list with capital few years ago discovered In
these broad tracts and cheap bargains prom
ising field for enterprise, with the prospect
never absent from the Russo-German's vision
of gradually BUSTING and supplanting the ma
tive. This, however, required time, but the
patience OF the Industrious sober, ignor-
ant, and solld-lookng Mongollan laborer.
The result has proved the German pro-
prletor to have been long way out OF his san
guine reckoning In many cases he acquired
estates covering areas of from 10000 to 2OO-
COO acres, but the entry of the German into
the possession OF his estates was the signal
for a rapid migration OF every Tartar laborer
and herdsman. The Tartar proprictors who
were his ncghbors, refused the services of
their horses, oxen, and camels at any price,
no matter how tempting. The storekeepers
In the neighboring towns and fairs would not
supply the Germans wants. This Tartar boy
cotting has now succeeded In driving the
greater number Of the German proprletors to
abandon their estates and holdings ut ruinous
losses. The governor Of the district has now
submitted a project to the imperial govern
ment for the repurchase Of these lands, and
their division among the Tartars IL is fur
Their proposed that In addition to these crown
grants of small holdings to some $4,000 Tar
tars the government shall in all necessltous
cases supply each Tartar family with a few
necessary agricultural implements and yoke
OF oxen. There Is little doubt thas this pro-
Ject will not be accepted by the government
Here we have the much abused Russian auto.
cratic government conceding the rights OF the
native Tartars to the soil of which they were for
merly dispoisessed by foreigners, and making
that confession in consequence Of successful
system OF agrarlan boycottlng 1t were too
much to expect that Lord Salisburys govern
ment would stoop to follow in any wise the
example set here by a power which his lord
ship still considered to be beyond the pale of
western civilization; and yet he might do SO
with saiutary effects In Ireland.

Want Homes.

An important experiment has just been
made by the marquis Of Bath, says The Lon
don Truth. A number Of freehold houses and
freehold building sites, from quarter to hall
an acre in size, were put up for auction Al
Frome. The competition was very keen, and
every lot was sold, the prices fetched being
from cos TO e3l0 per acre. II will be difficult
after this for the most obstinate opponent Of
the land law reform to maintain that there Il
no demand for small freeholds, or that would
be freeholders have not the means Of crafty
ing their wish II they bad the opportunity.

TUCSON, ARIZONA, May 8, 1887.
ED. FREE PRKss: left Ban Marcos on
2Sth ult., arrived at this city Sunday night
following. A collision occurred between
our train and water train at Eddy, 70
miles south of Waco, the engine Of our train
was disabled, no damage to passengers.
Caused delay SO that we did not make
connection with the west bound train at Fl.
Worth. The Fort is not on a "boom," bod
a rain Of 20 minutes Friday night, the crop
out look Is not fattering, though they had
rain about week before. The lightning
set fire to the telegraph Office. As we 60
west from here there has been more rain
with q severe hail storm which did o great
deal of damage to windows.
One hundred and fifty to 200 miles wesi
of Fl. Worth there has been but little rair
for years. Homes and farms deserted.
As we travel on towards Ell Paso the coun-
try becomes more desolate, and Is nothing
but desolate waste to this town.
Tucson is city of 5000 inhabitants, 1880
feet above the sea level, the mountain
ranges adjacent to the city are from 4oOO
to 5000 feet high. Pursuits outside the city
are chiefly mining and stock raising. Along
the water courses there is some farming.
There has been no rain here since Last fall,
stock is dying for grass and water. There
is public free school building here which
cost $4O, 900, fine court house. Tucson
once had population Of 5000. Like all
other towns in the mining regions is sub
iect to fluctuations. Most of the buildings
are adobe, transportation for lumber is high
consequently but little used.
While write there are strong signs OF nm
earthquake. The house shook 30 violently
that the clock stopped at 20 minutes past
o. m. The schools and all other assemblies
were dismissed and the whole town appears
to be in CONSERVATION. There was rumb.
ling sound for minutes with swaying Of
the house. Weather hot In the day, nights
cool. Report has IL that some Of the dist
tant peaks of mountains are smoking but
think not
Ny best wishes for che FREE Press and
Prohibition. Hurriedly, A. O. MosHER.
S.-Since writing find the earthquake
did damage TO some Of the large buildings
in town, to what extent I cannot now say.

The DeIInquent Tax List

Appears in the present issue Of the FREE
PRrss. In THE connection II is proper Tor
us 70 state. that for three years past the List
has been sent TO nominal newspapers OF not
half tho circulation of ours, In disregard OF
the spirit of the law on the 81 bjeot and the
RIGHTS and interests Of the taxpayers whose
property was advertised. among whom
there was general complaint that they were
not made aware of the matter until after the
same had been sold. This course was pur-
sued in order to punish the editor for pre-
suminQ to discuss the public affairs OF the
county in the interest Of the people general.
". And we are credibly informed that
members of the little ring about the county
seat, who are hostile to an independent
Newspaper, made strenuous efforts this year
10 secure continuance of this proscrirtive
line Of policy against rs.
We invite the attention OF the honest
people of the county to these facts, and be-
iieye they will administer proper reouke
to this sort of petty prescription and IN,
tolerance by standing moro firmly ana
unitedly by their old friend, the FREE PRESS.
rAs we send copies of this weeks paper to
various persons ON the tax list who are not
subscribers, we .re-publish the above ex'
planatory paragraph for their benefit

was written by James A. Bevsridgs, who
edited paper at Austin In 1850. He VA
an accomplished scholar and the author o.
many beautiful poems, but finally died Q
common drunkard In . market stall In the
city Of Houston
Il sparkles IN the rain drop,
II glances In the dew,
Il spangles In the Toe gems,
Whose summer flowers grew.
Il sporteth In the oataracts,
And In the glaciers crest,
II dances In the hail storms,
Aud paints the mountains breast.
Il draws veil Of beauty
Before the setting sun,
And gives the rainbow brighter tints
Than artist yet hath done.
II spreads snowy carpet
Upon the frozen ground,
And all that's pure and beautiful
In water may be found.
Down in the valleys, low and deep,
Where murmurs fount and rill,
God brews this essence for our use
Without the shining still;
And far above the mountain tops.
Where storms and thunders brood,
He forms the only drink designed
For man, his creatures good.

Sheriff Cock Ii liberal minded 70 away
down in the heels Of his boots. Pred1udlce
n an unknown quantity In his makeup. 10
show his broad minded hberality and ADJ
sence Of any speck Of mean spite In the
present canvass, Notwithstanding the fact
that the Oresset received the county print
ing by putting in the lowest bid ct the Last
meeting of the COMMISSIONER Court, he
had the delidquent tax list published In the
FREE PREss, thus giving about $76 to that
paper, Just to show his liberality.
So says 'our neighbor over the way
thereby revealing refreshing degree Of
verdancy. The advertisement Of the de.
linquent tax list is not under Jurisdiction Of
the Commissioners Court at all, and has
never been 90 considered. II Is entirely
under the control of the Sheriff, who in this
county is also the collector, and the price
is fixed by statute law. To say moth
ing of any other consideration, the fact that
the FREE Press has clearly larger circula'
ton than any other paper published in the
county was of itself conclusive reason for
the course pursued by Squire Cock. As an
honest man and official, looking to the
spirit of the law and the interest and pref.
erence of the taxpayers, he conld not have
done otherwise. But If there had been no
difference in circulation, that the sheriff q
Office should have Disseminated in favor of
friend as against an enemy, is surely not very
remarkable. The pay, however, is moi
much If any over one-half the amount above
stated, and will be fairly earned-no "giv'
ing" in the case.
The writer of the above paragraph is the
last person to talk of ''predjudice" as oper
ating in official circles-no one has profited
by 1t SO much as he. Only couple Of
weeks since he. from this cause alone, was
awarded the publication of the constitution
al amendments, which he certainly had nc
right to expect.
